let me say that i think the administration has lots to be proud of on the foreign policy front. i strongly disagree with charles krauthammer. i think it is major in the united states. i think when you think about what happened in egypt and libya and when you think about the effort the united states has made to get out of iraq to get out of afghanistan in such a way as to allow american troops to come home and allow us to reorient our efforts in such a way as to use the drones and again that's highly problematic many people think the drones are at the wrong set. the drones have been effective in terms of going after al qaeda's leadership. they have pioneered their use and effectiveness. >> the vacuum of leadership is creating some of these countries saying america is not going to be there for me. algeria what we just witnessed there like all of the countries that somehow these al qaeda groups are emboldened. >> i don't know how they would be emboldened. america has been effected in ousting moammar khaddafy. he is not on this earth. bin laden is not on the earth. there is a need f

foreign policy it's about what the president should be or will be doing and there's a general sense that of course the u.s. will be intervening wherever it can so that's the idea that's being perpetuated it's not even a matter of debate really president obama signs off on a kill list every week and sets up new drone bases overseas and somehow his foreign policies are not perceived as aggressive and do not steer a debate here at home there's also this phony argument that you hear every now and then that president obama is not half as aggressive as george w. bush would have been or mitt romney would have been and it seems there is a notion that as long as there are no u.s. boots on the ground as long as wars are fought either with a remote control or through proxies it's a success and it's not perceived as aggressive again president obama's hit and run style libya intervention it was touted as a success then the u.s. ambassador died and it became more difficult to brag about libya and ignored the mess that we view it turned into so it very much seems like it's not about the president's act
